"Suicide?"

Yang Wu was a little incredulous. In this era www.biquge.info generals who generally lost battles either chose to be prisoners or fought to the death, and not many chose to commit suicide.

"Yes, it is said that there are two commanders in the Huzhou army who are more senior than Zhu Xingxian, and they jointly set up Zhu Xingxian, and today's dispatch of troops to storm our army's camp is a decision made by these two commanders."

Then Qin Pei introduced what he learned from the captive, and Yang Wu understood the reason.

"Ordering multiple doors is indeed the easiest reason for defeat!" He couldn't help but sigh to himself.

Historically, Zhou Ben could not break through Suzhou for eight months, and finally returned defeated, and later when he talked about this defeat, he said that the reason was that the power of the chief general was too light, the authority of the deputy general was too heavy, and the whole army was not well dispatched. In fact, this is also the result of Yang Xingmi's deliberate cause, the purpose is to prevent a certain general's authority from being too big and causing the tail to be too big.

Yang Wu has no intention of changing this for the time being, anyway, now to deal with these feudal towns in the south, it doesn't take too many troops every time, and the harm of the main general's power is not very great; As for the need for large-scale conquests in the future, I must have enough to control the army.

"And what happened to those two commanders?" Yang Wu looked very calm.

"Those two died in battle after Zhu Xingxian committed suicide!"

Yang Wu was stunned for a moment, and then sighed: "Qian Biao is really very human!" There are so many loyal ministers under his command, not to be underestimated! ”

Historically, there was a reason why Qian Biao was able to establish the Wu Yue Kingdom and become a fierce rival of Huainan. Even if the situation on Qian Biao's side is now eroded to such a point, not only Hangzhou has been besieged, Suzhou has also fallen, and the fall of Huzhou can be predicted next, but at this point, there are still loyal ministers who can die for Qian Biao, which cannot help but make Yang Wu sigh.

"Order, bury three people!"

Yang Wu immediately ordered. He must treat his loyal servants, even those who oppose him, with respect.

"Let's go, now that Jiaxing has been defeated, Zhu Xingxian has also been defeated by us, and he has been fighting all afternoon, and now it's time to celebrate!" After dealing with these things, Yang Wu felt particularly excited, and immediately ordered a good birthday to celebrate.

Three days later, Yang Wu was visiting the wounded soldiers in Jiaxing City, and at this time, Zhu Siqing hurriedly came in with a messenger, and said with a happy face: "Shizi, General Wang Maozhang has just sent a messenger to say that they have captured Huzhou and captured Huzhou Assassin Shi Gaoyan!" ”

"What? So fast? Then Gao Yan shouldn't be so useless, right? Or did he Kaejo surrender? Yang Wu was shocked, it had only been a few days since Wang Maozhang sent his troops, but he didn't expect that he had already conquered Huzhou. As for the possibility that Gao Yan would open the city and surrender, he didn't think about it, after all, Gao Yan's loyalty to Qian Biao had long been heard of.

"That Gao Yan naturally won't be so useless, but his son, hehe......" Zhu Siqing, who has always been taciturn, also smiled a little from ear to ear at this time.

"Takahiko's son?" Yang Wu was a little puzzled, and then he remembered some records in history, and hurriedly asked, "Is it the one named Gao Li?" ”

"The prince knows about him?" Zhu Siqing was a little puzzled, it stands to reason that Gao Yan's son has no reputation, and Yang Wu shouldn't know.

"Is it really him? Tell me what Wang Maozhang's attack on Huzhou has to do with this person? Yang Wu didn't answer, but asked again and again.

"That's right, Gao Li killed someone, and he was afraid of being punished by his father, so he opened the city gate and surrendered to our army!"

Five days ago, in the city of Huzhou.

Gao Yannai is a native of Haiyan and is almost 50 years old this year. His father has died a long time ago, but his mother is still alive and is honored by Gao Yan. His wife, Zhao, gave birth to three sons for him, the second of whom died young, and only the eldest son and the youngest son were raised.

However, the eldest son, Gao Wei, died in battle with Tu Huanzhi when he led the army to rescue Hangzhou some time ago.

And some strange things happened when Gao Li's son was born that year. It is said that Gao Yan dreamed one day that a strange man with wings broke into his bedroom with a sharp blade, and he was so shocked that he hurriedly asked the strange man why he came, and the strange man replied, "I have come to avenge the thousands of lives that your son will kill in the future!" Immediately, Gao Yan woke up from his dream, and his wife Zhao immediately gave birth to his youngest son, Gao Li.

Gao's mother is old, and she only has two grandchildren in her heart, but now the eldest grandson is good and dignified but was sent to the battlefield by Gao Yan to fight to death, so she is naturally extremely dissatisfied with Gao Yan, and the doting on her younger grandson is even more extreme, and no one in the entire Gao family dares to provoke this Gao Li.

To say that Gao Yan has always been a generous person, he treats the people very well, and naturally wins the support of the people; And although his eldest son Gao Wei didn't want to lead his troops to rescue Hangzhou, he finally went after all, and died on the battlefield.

Such a loyal, forgiving family, but don't want Gao Li but is a cruel person by nature, although his father is in charge of showing generosity and benevolence in public, but secretly he is fierce and cruel, bloodthirsty and killing, since the first life was killed at the age of thirteen, there are no less than 100 people who have died in his hands over the years, because he hides it well, and Gao Yan is busy with government affairs and has no time to care about him, so he has never known his murderous nature.

A few days ago, because Wang Maozhang's army besieged the city, Gao Li was irritable, and it happened that his maid Xiao He accidentally knocked over the teacup when serving tea to him, and the hot tea scalded his hands up a few blisters, and the angry Gao Li immediately ordered the house slave to pull Xiao He out and beat him to death.

To say that these house slaves usually do bad things with Gao Li, and there are not a few civilians who are secretly killed, and now they have Gao Li's order to pull Xiao He out and beat him violently without saying a word, no matter how miserable Xiao He begs for mercy, he will not let go at all, and Xiao He was killed by several people on the spot in just a moment.

If Gao Li usually didn't dare to commit murder at home, but today was also that Xiao He's unlucky, and he just happened to make a mistake when Gao Li was upset.

However, this Xiao He is not an ordinary person, her father is the housekeeper He Bei, although Xiao He was beaten to death by Gao Li, although he tried his best to cover it up, he did not hide He Bei, and finally the matter went to Gao Yan.

And Gao Yan sent someone to investigate, and found that Gao Li not only killed Xiao He, but also secretly killed hundreds of civilians in the past few years.

Thinking that he Gao Yan is usually lenient and benevolent and loves the people, he only thinks about whether he can benefit the people if there is any benefit, he thinks about canceling any policies that harm the people as soon as possible, and he will deal with the bandits who harm the people strictly; didn't think that his son would be such a cruel person.

Enraged, Gao Yan immediately had Gao Li put on death row, ready to be sentenced in front of the people.

With Gao Yan's loyalty and selfless nature, even if his son committed such a serious crime, he was ready to kill him.
